Maids and Housekeeping Cleaners pay in Hawaii and Nebraska
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Maids and Housekeeping Cleaners is $51,600 per year in Hawaii. It is $34,170 per year in Nebraska. Hawaii is 51.0% above Nebraska on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 37-2012 and the same annual wage metric. Median means the middle of each area's published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. The larger median is not proof that one place gives a better job or a better result. It is one wage fact from one source period.
BLS lists 11,120 wage and salary jobs in Hawaii and 6,250 in Nebraska. Those are survey job counts, not open posts. Read pay, job scale, local share, and price level as separate facts before you make a choice.
